The evolution of a tuberculosis (TB) infection SET towards active disease is driven by a combination of factors mostly related to the host response.The equilibrium between control of the bacillary load and the pathology generated is crucial as regards preventing the growth and proliferation of TB lesions.In addition, some experimental evidence sugg
The aim of this research was to evaluate the level of greenhouse gas emission from broiler chicken farming industry in Malaysia.In order to achieve that, Life Cycle Assessment method was chosen as a framework to complete the task.A case study was conducted at a broiler chicken farm to gather the data and information related to the broiler chicken p
We reconstructed the ventilation record of deep water at 2100 m depth in the mid-latitude western North Pacific over the past 25 kyr from radiocarbon measurements of coexisting planktic and benthic Fat Quarter Patterns foraminiferal shells in sediment with a high sedimentation rate.The <sup>14</sup>C data on fragile and robust planktic
Objective.The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of surface stiffness on multisegment foot kinematics and temporal parameters during running.Methods.Eighteen male subjects ran on three different surfaces (i.e., concrete, artificial grass, and rubber) in both heeled running shoes (HS) and minimal running shoes (MS).Both these shoes had
